A recent local article revealed foods that pregnant women should shun. They suggest that women have well-rounded nutritious diets. Cooked seafood should always be avoided as fish contains high levels of mercury. The older and bigger the fish is the more Mercury it contains. Raw seafood also contains bacteria and due to metabolic changes during pregnancy women are more susceptible to infection from the bacteria. Undercooked meat, poultry, and eggs are also hazardous to a fetus.

What about getting back into shape after the baby arrives? A balanced diet is key but Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin also offer plastic surgery for those who desire their pre-baby body back. The total body contouring procedure is a great option for women with poor tissue elasticity after childbirth. This procedure reduces fat and skin simultaneously leaving your body contoured and shapely. Sagging skin can be tucked and lifted in the buttocks, thighs, groin, and upper arms. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin can offer a variety of options for this procedure and the areas addressed. This procedure is for skin and loose tissue. If there is excess fat that does not respond to diet and exercise liposuction is recommended.

A recent Dallas article reported that the local Jewish Community Center offers a fitness boot camp every Saturday for those desiring an intense method to get in shape. They found that at these sessions the boot camp instructor was more like a motivational speaker or support group leader rather than the traditional mean and angry boot camp instructor. They even give pep talks during these boot camp sessions. They believe in pacing over pushing and encouraging members to simply try their best. They strive to motivate over hate and be tough without screaming or intimidation.

Boot camp workouts are popular because they are intense and results oriented. Participants like them simply because they work.  Unlike a boot camp experience, plastic surgery can provide more immediate results. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin offer plastic surgery procedures with beautiful results. For those seeking a body transformation the total body lift may be the procedure for you. The body lift corrects loose skin due to weight fluctuation, pregnancy, and age. The result of this lift is smoother skin with added contour. Various areas can be addressed during a consultation with our experienced surgeons.

A recent local article revealed another new “trend” in cosmetic surgery. A doctor is grafting fat to create volume in the face and chest via a “painless” procedure. Fat grafting is popular but many stay away from it due to the fact that the results do not last because the fat decomposes into the rest of the body. To help the fat survive the doctor injects it with stem cells so the fat regenerates itself allowing it to last twice as long. They hope these treatments last 5 to 10 years but other doctors claim that it is not guaranteed. More research is needed to determine the outcomes.

Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin offer proven methods for volume in the face to smooth out wrinkles as well as volume in the chest for a more feminine bust. The doctors offer two types of breast implant procedures. The first is the advance tuba method of implantation via the belly button and the second is the typical method of incision in the folds of the armpit or the nipple. To fill out the face simple injectables and dermal fillers are a non-invasive way to see instant results. Fat grafting is available but is recommended for small areas like the lips or nasal labial folds.

A recent local article revealed the story of Dee Spears who sued Botox maker Allergen for the death of her seven year old daughter. Botox is an injectable used to paralyze muscles. Botox is approved for treatment of cerebral palsy and Spears daughter died after receiving regular injections in her legs to control spasms over an 18 month period. Spears sued the company claiming that the paralyzed muscles in her daughters legs caused her death. The jury found that the girl died of natural causes related to her disorder.

In the plastic surgery world Botox injections are used to paralyze the muscles in the face that cause folds and wrinkles. Botox eliminates the frown lines between the brow. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin administer these quick, safe injections. The procedure only takes around 10 minutes with no downtime afterward. Botox should be injected by a trained medical  professional. Patients who choose the same injector for their Botox treatments experience a much better result over time. Botox will relax the muscle over time and the same injector is familiar with the patient and will inject with the same pattern achieving optimal results. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin recommend that their patients don’t get caught up in the “price game”.

We will soon be springing forward on March 14, 2010 for daylight saving time. A recent local articlerevealed ways to make the transition a smooth one. Our bodies can take about a week to adjust so it is recommended to get into the habit one week earlier. Also, the environment has a lot to do with how we sleep. Bedrooms should be slightly cool and dark at night and able to let in sunlight in the morning. Practicing feng shui might help as well-no pets, no eating, and no television in the bed can make your bedroom a sleep sanctuary. Sleeping pills should also be avoided as they throw off natural sleep cycles. Get moving and exercise-but not before bed due to the endorphins and energy released.

Dr. Wilcox and Dulin want you to look and feel refreshed and rejuvenated this Spring. Facial procedures are the perfect solution to revitalize your look. With aging, gravity, stress, and the environment the area from our hairline down to our brows can get wrinkled. In addition to looking unattractive these above brow wrinkles also make us appear older and more stressed. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin recommend the brow or forehead lift. This procedure eliminates wrinkles from the forehead and actually lifts the eyebrows. The result is a very natural looking refreshed and more youthful  looking patient.

Cuddling with your spouse is actually a form of massage with great benefits. A recent local article revealed that cuddling is actually a form of massage and that warm, caring, non sexual touch can reduce stress and boost immunity. Couples who cuddled and gave each other neck and shoulder massages had higher traces of the “love hormone” oxytocin. Those who get massages report a decrease in insomnia, asthma attacks, tension headaches, and cancer pain. Massage also increases white blood cells which fight infection.

Nothing says cuddle time with your spouse like a few kissed here and there. Your smile can be sensual and youthful with fuller, plump lips via lip augmentation from Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin. The lip augmentation  also reduces fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area. Lips can be augmented with fat grafted or via Restylane injection.

A recent local article revealed a new trend in Texas-”Heavyweight Yoga.” The class was started by a woman who was not the same size as most  yoga doers and modified the exercises to fit people with larger builds. The goal of yoga is to have inner peace and to  be comfortable in your own skin. Many have found that they can be flexible and achieve balance and stability without being stick thin. Confidence is something that can come in any size, shape, and color.

Heavyweight Yoga was started because a woman did not feel that the stretches were catered to her. When it comes to your body happiness lies within. It does not matter what others think of you as long as you are happy in your own skin. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin support individual freedom and expression. Their plastic surgery procedures strive to get their patients closer to the comfort and self-confidence they desire.

A recent local article revealed information about prosopagnosia-the lack of ability to differentiate between faces. An estimated one to two percent of the population have difficulty with face recognition even with people they see or interact with on a daily basis. Face recognition is highly distinct from other abilities and the study reveals that it is in our genes. Babies look and admire faces from the time that they are born and developing brains require exposure to a variety of faces early on to be able to effectively spot the differences between them.

Doctors Wilcox and Dulin believe that every face should be recognized. They specialize in natural looking facial plastic surgery procedures to fight the effects of age or genetics. A facelift is a great solution for older patients. It does not stop the aging process but allows patients to  appear to go back in time correcting creases between the nose and the mouth, dropping along the jaw, and folds and fat deposits around the neck. Dr.’s Wilcox and Dulin also remove excess fat and tighten the muscles for an overall flawless result.
